It was already midnight after returning to the station, and at the border, Nikki and Zhao Yi were already waiting there with their people. After another change of car, Waldette looked at me and said, "I hope we don't see each other again." After this farewell sentence, he immediately returned to Kosovo.

The old fellow Eunice did not stop, and immediately left with Fatmir and Nikki. It seems that he was in a hurry to systematically interrogate Fatmir. Before the old guy took him away, he told me and Milke that we must take a good look at the information he gave us when we had time, and that it might be of great help to us.

I slept for six hours and then left the station and went straight to the abandoned barracks, which I didn't have time to check for almost a week. It's a top priority right now, and there must be no sloppiness.

When I arrived at the barracks, I saw that in the open field below the barracks, Grandet was busy with a group of men. The miser, of course, was not helping me with the civil works, he was training the artillerymen, a job I had thought of and had already assigned to Grande.

"Move faster, faster! Do you think you're the only ones who have the cannons? Maybe the other side of the observation post has spotted you while you're running with the barrel or pedestal, and their artillery is preparing to attack you. Grandet shouted as he looked at the Serbs he had picked out and handed him over, "Then you will surely ask, what should I do if I am being targeted?" As he spoke, he smiled and continued to shout: "I tell you three things, the first one: that is, speed up and blow them up before the other party blows you up, this is the best result." Article 2: Also speed up, fire the shells before you are killed, get back some money for yourself, and try to send out two as many as possible, so as not to let yourself die too badly. After speaking, he looked at the group of Serbs who were going all out to assemble the mortar, paused for a moment and continued: "The last one, that is, like you now, is like a bunch of **** in a brothel who are tired because they are too busy with business, and finally they are blown to pieces by the other party with the cannon!" ”

These Serbs seemed to have heard too much of such reprimands, and one by one they continued to work on their hands as if they had not heard them, and after fixing the base gun barrel and bracket, they quickly adjusted the projectile angle, and raised their hands one by one to indicate completion.

"I'm ashamed of that speed! If our opponents are like yours, then I don't think we need to have artillery. You can each rush with your guns in hand, because I have a hard time believing that you can land on the people or targets I'm going to blow up. Grandet said and saw me, and then he sighed and said, "Take a break." Prepare the shells, and in a moment we'll find a place where no one is around and practice live firing. ”

"Yes sir." A Serb who seemed to be leading the group got up and arrived.

Grandet nodded and walked over to me. I looked at him and smiled, "How's the practice?" ”

"Poof... What else? You just saw that. Grandet said as he took out his cigarette and smoked it, "Your mission over there is done?" ”

"Of course. Otherwise, how could I stand here so leisurely and watch you train them. I said, taking the pack of cigarettes in his hand, taking out one and taking a puff myself, "I think these Serbs are more skilled." ”

"It's useless to be skilled. It's going to have to be a lot better than what we're doing now. People are not machines, they are nervous and scared when they are really fighting, they make mistakes, and then you look at the guarantee that they are not so skilled and neat. Grandet said.

"These Serbs are single-handed, they all have combat experience, and they won't be as bad as you say when the war starts." I said.

"That's for the best. After all, it will be you who will take them to war when the time comes. Grandet looked at me, "The Count didn't go there. ”

"How do you know?" I asked.

Grandet smiled, "Nicky knew about it here when you started doing it. The old guy Eunice had been in contact with him, but Nicky was in the Earl's supermarket when he got the message, and I saw the Earl. You get the idea. ”

"I see." I nodded, "Do you know who he sent?"

？ Those who went in his place. ”

"His guards. There's nothing wrong with this, it seems that there is still the captain of his guard. I'm sure of these, because these people had all been seen coming in and out with the Count before, but they didn't appear when they saw them last time, but were replaced by other people. Grandet said with a smile, "Those guards must have been killed by you." ”

"Of course." I said a little worried, "What do you think will happen to the Count when he receives the news?" Retaliation? ”

"Revenge? To whom? Does he know who did it? He can't beat all his enemies, can he? Does he dare? Grandet sneered.

I was a little relieved to hear him say this, and though I was still a little worried, Grandet had a point, and the Count was a cautious man, so he would have taken the time to figure out the situation and then figure out what he should do. So even if there is revenge, it will not come immediately.

"That's good." I said and glanced in the direction of the barracks, "Then I'll go and see there." You go on with them. ”

"Speaking of the Guard. Do you remember Salim? Just a few steps after I had taken a few steps, Grandet spoke behind him.

"Salim?" I looked back at Grandet, "The Chechen?" That Chechen from the Habib Guards? ”

"yes. Do you know any other Salim? Grandet shrugged.

"He's not dead? I remember we got separated when we broke out. I said.

"If you are separated, you must be dead?" Grandet looked at me dissatisfied, "You forgot about others, but others still remember that you saved him." ”

I pointed to Grande, "Don't look at me with that expression, don't you remember when you broke through?" Do I look to see if there is anyone I know on the ground? Do you think you were carried out by profiteers? ”

"Hey, hey. I remember. How can you forget? It was our great gypsies who led us out. Grandet said with a lewd smile.

"Stop, stop. I can't stand that look on your face. Seriously, how's that guy doing now? Are you still fighting guerrillas with the Russians? I asked.

"Nope. He's doing things for me now. Grandet spoke.

I nodded, "That's good." It's better than fighting the government army. With that, I looked at the barracks again, "I'll go and see there." Hurry up and practice, aren't you in a hurry to get back to your business? ”

"No hurry, no hurry. Milk wants me to stay a few more days so that I can help you train your staff. My business, with profiteers watching, is fine. Grandet said.

"Oh. That's good. But you better hurry up, I'll get busy first. I said as I walked towards the barracks.

"Of course. Start practicing now! Grandet said and looked at the Serbs, "Get moving, dismantle the cannons." Let's change places. Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, treat every time as if we were fighting, we are not going to train but to transfer positions now! Fast! ”

I walked into the barracks, checked the progress of the project, and called the two responsible people over to find out. As a result, after the manpower provided by Bunotz and the equipment and materials brought by Trovic were in place, we were much faster, and if we continued at this rate, it would take about another month and a half to complete the work, and after about half a month, we could transfer people here in batches for training.

Now, I have to start training my team and getting to know our opponents. I looked at the Serbs who were busy, and I couldn't help but feel that I had survived the most difficult times, and if everything went well, it would not be long before I took the initiative. Actually, I was a little disappointed by the ambush, and although the goal was to capture the Albanian, and the process went well, I wanted to kill the Count. Unfortunately, the Count didn't come at all. But now it looks like this is being transformed

I knew that it might not be long before I would have to wait passively for an opportunity, but would be able to take the initiative and find the Count's unhappiness without fear of his retaliation.

So after checking the barracks on my own again, and after instructing the two principals on some matters, I set out for the midnight station in the woods, where I had to get to know my opponent as soon as possible, and with Milk, take a closer look at the papers that old fellow Younis had thrown us, and plan what was to come.
